Diana Santos: Short presentation

I am currently teaching Portuguese language and linguistics at the University of Oslo (Institute for European languages, literature and area studies), after 25 years of research and development on the computational processing of Portuguese, which included the launching and management of the Linguateca project, which is still alive.

For my current and past teaching, please see my institutional page at UiO.
My research interests (both from a language and a computational point of view) are Semantics, Translation, Corpus-based research and teaching, Evaluation, Cultural studies, and Statistical methods in linguistics and literature.
